What is a demilune table?
2 Answers

A demilune table has a semicircular top, allowing it to stand flush against a wall or sofa back.
1stDibs ExpertSeptember 25, 2019
Demilune tables are shaped like semi-circles, which makes sense because demilune means “half moon” in French. They’re typically quite small, making them ideal for decoration in an entryway or living room.
